Chris Lattner has announced that the 'Introduction to the LLVM Compiler Infrastructure' presentation he gave at the 2006 Itanium Conference and Expo is now available online. LLVM is a portable compiler infrastructure, offering a compilation strategy that allows for compile-time, link-time, run-time and offline program optimization.

It gives an overview of LLVM, and discusses topics such as the intermediate code representation, the status of integration with both the Apple and FSF GCC branches, the Itanium code generator, and more.
